Covering 2.2 million acres in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, Yellowstone National Park is a dazzling mountain retreat, even without its 10,000 geologic wonders. Hundreds of thousands of visitors arrive each year to hike, fish and camp in the backcountry, and even more make the pilgrimage to see Old Faithful.

Its combination of natural beauty and geothermal features — the highest concentration on earth — makes Yellowstone a once-in-a-lifetime destination.
